cushiest jobs: just when i thought we wouldn't be on the list...

[C-150ETOPS]

I guess most of my 2007 60 hours/week gone from home was spent booking para-sailing junkets and entering limbo contests at the pool.

And that's for a senior in seat guy. I imagine a few here could blow my time out to Pluto.

My records tell me that I spent 4,083 hours away from home this year, just a hair over the 1,161 I apparently was supposed to work. I guess all that time I spent in Germany, China, the middle east and elsewhere isn't job related. This kind of garbage doesn't do anything but perpetuate a myth.

High-paying jobs with low number of hours

I didn't know that making approx 30K was considered "High-paying". I can't believe how many jobs in the 30's she even listed. She must be factoring in the government subsidies should you decide to start a family at some point.

I make more than a Psychiatrist and only work 10 days a month. Not too bad considering I didn't have to spend 4 years in medical school.

And the reporter thinks TAFB means "the after flight beer".

I'll give you a chuckle for that. LOL
